Chaim Topol - Far From the Home I Love lyrics

How can I hope to make you unterstand Why I do, what I do, Why I must travel to a distant land Far from the home I love? Once I was happily content to be As I was, where I was Close to the people who are close to me Here in the home I love... Who could see that a man would come Who would change the shapes of my dreams? Helpless, now, I stand with him Wtaching older dreams grow dim. Oh, what a melancholy choice this is, Wanting home, wanting him, Closing my heart to every hope but his, Leaving the home I love. There were my heart has settled long ago I must go, I must go. Who could imagine I'd be wand'ring so Far from the home I love? Yet, there with my love, I'm home.
